Mini Getaway

Blake took his last final for year 1 last Tuesday 

and we were dying to skip town for a few days. 

We were so excited to be out of town 

and doing fun things, 

I forgot to take any pictures =( 

There's not much that's "photo worthy" 

out here in LBK. 

We celebrated our 2 year wedding anniversary Tuesday, as well

so we were trying to think of somewhere fun

with good food, great friends and 

where we don't get very often. 

We chose none other than DFW

and are so glad we did! 

We started our adventure Wednesday morning, 

stopping in Abilene to leave the pets with the inlaws,

 go to the dentist for our 6 month cleaning, 

and have a delicious supper with 

Lacy and Brent Mankin 

at Copper Creek.  

The next morning we loaded up

and hit the road 

as Blake had an orthodontist appt in Arlington at 11. 

After his appointment, 

we met Dan Green at P.F. Chang's to visit with him

before heading to the ballpark for the Rangers game. 

Texas Rangers vs Oakland A's

Go Rangers!!!

Although they lost,

 we enjoyed ourselves very much! 

After the ballgame, 

we went and checked into the hotel 

and got dressed for dinner at III Forks 

with Foster Green and Emily and Cody Miller. 

We slept in a little bit Friday; 

thank goodness because we both needed it! 

Once we finally got up and moving, 

we headed to Northpark 

for La Madeline's 

and to stroll around the mall

while we waited on Mom and Dad to arrive. 

They got in around noon,

so we headed over to Los Colinas for the 

Byron Nelson Golf Tournament. 

The only picture we took at the golf tourney =(

We thoroughly enjoyed spending the beautiful day outside

and catching up with my parents.  

After the golf tournament, 

we cleaned up and headed over to La Cima

with the folks for supper.  

The food was delicious 

and the views were spectacular! 

We bid the parents adieu, 

and headed back to Dallas 

to meet up with Foster and Molly DeWare 

for drinks but didn't last long 

as we were exhausted. 

Saturday morning we stopped off at 

Another Broken Egg Cafe

for a devine breakfast

before hitting the road to Fort Worth 

to visit with Kristen and Dave Buchanan

and to met Baby Olive. 

We had a great visit with them 

and are so glad they are back closer 

so we can see them more often.  

Around 2pm, 

we headed back to Abilene. 

We hungout with the inlaws

all day Sunday; 

attending church, playing golf (boys), 

running errands (ladies), watching the eclispe

and just visiting. 

It was wonderful. 

We got home early Monday morning 

and hit the ground running 

trying to get all of our errands completed 

and loose ends tied up

before we head to Utah Friday!
